We end our spring semester with our annual puppet play.  This year we told the story of Masha and the Bear, a story about a little girl who gets lost in the forest and has to live with a bear until one day she is able to out wit the bear and return to her grandparents in her village.  Stories entertain us and enrich our understanding of ourselves.  They remind us to be brave and clever, like Masha, so we can find our way out of the woods and into the sunlight of happiness.
